[PATCH 00/17] VFS: Filesystem information and notifications [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:01:59

Here are a set of patches that adds system calls, that (a) allow
information about the VFS, mount topology, superblock and files to be
retrieved and (b) allow for notifications of mount topology rearrangement
events, mount and superblock attribute changes and other superblock events,
such as errors.


========================
FILESYSTEM NOTIFICATIONS
========================

The watch_mount() system call places a watch on a point in the mount
topology specified by the dirfd, path and at_flags parameters.  All mount
topology change and mount attribute change notifications in the subtree
rooted at that point can be intercepted by the watch.  Watches are ducted
through pipes:

	int fd[2];
	pipe2(fd, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE);
	ioctl(fd[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, BUF_SIZE);
	watch_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/", 0, fd[0], 0x02);

Events include:

 - New mount made
 - Mount unmounted
 - Mount expired
 - R/O state changed
 - Other attribute changed
 - Mount moved from
 - Mount moved to

Using filtering, this may be limited in various ways (single mount watch vs
subtree watch, recursive vs non-recursive changes, to-R/O vs to-R/W, mount
vs submount).

Each mount now has a change counter.  Whenever a mount is changed, this
gets incremented.  It can be queried by fsinfo() using either
FSINFO_ATTR_MOUNT_INFO or FSINFO_ATTR_MOUNT_CHILDREN.  The ID of the mount
on which the notification is generated is placed into the notification
message (triggered_on).  If the event involves a second mount as well, such
as creation of a new mount, that gets returned too (changed_mount).


The watch_sb() system call places a watch on the superblock specified by
the dirfd, path and at_flags parameters.  This allows various superblock
events to be monitored for, such as:

 - Transition between R/W and R/O
 - Filesystem errors
 - Quota overrun
 - Network status changes

Each superblock now gets a 64-bit unique superblock identifier and a
notification counter.  The counter is incremented each time one of these
notifications would be generated.  This attributes can be queried using
fsinfo() with FSINFO_ATTR_SB_NOTIFICATIONS.  The identifier is placed into
notification messages.


============================
FILESYSTEM INFORMATION QUERY
============================

The fsinfo() system call allows information about the filesystem at a
particular path point to be queried as a set of attributes, some of which
may have more than one value.

Attribute values are of four basic types:

 (1) Version dependent-length structure (size defined by type).

 (2) Variable-length string (up to 4096, including NUL).

 (3) List of structures (up to INT_MAX size).

 (4) Opaque blob (up to INT_MAX size).

Attributes can have multiple values either as a sequence of values or a
sequence-of-sequences of values and all the values of a particular
attribute must be of the same type.

Note that the values of an attribute *are* allowed to vary between dentries
within a single superblock, depending on the specific dentry that you're
looking at, but all the values of an attribute have to be of the same type.

I've tried to make the interface as light as possible, so integer/enum
attribute selector rather than string and the core does all the allocation
and extensibility support work rather than leaving that to the filesystems.
That means that for the first two attribute types, the filesystem will
always see a sufficiently-sized buffer allocated.  Further, this removes
the possibility of the filesystem gaining access to the userspace buffer.


fsinfo() allows a variety of information to be retrieved about a filesystem
and the mount topology:

 (1) General superblock attributes:

     - Filesystem identifiers (UUID, volume label, device numbers, ...)
     - The limits on a filesystem's capabilities
     - Information on supported statx fields and attributes and IOC flags.
     - A variety single-bit flags indicating supported capabilities.
     - Timestamp resolution and range.
     - The amount of space/free space in a filesystem (as statfs()).
     - Superblock notification counter.

 (2) Filesystem-specific superblock attributes:

     - Superblock-level timestamps.
     - Cell name.
     - Server names and addresses.
     - Filesystem-specific information.

 (3) VFS information:

     - Mount topology information.
     - Mount attributes.
     - Mount notification counter.

 (4) Information about what the fsinfo() syscall itself supports, including
     the type and struct/element size of attributes.

The system is extensible:

 (1) New attributes can be added.  There is no requirement that a
     filesystem implement every attribute.  Note that the core VFS keeps a
     table of types and sizes so it can handle future extensibility rather
     than delegating this to the filesystems.

 (2) Version length-dependent structure attributes can be made larger and
     have additional information tacked on the end, provided it keeps the
     layout of the existing fields.  If an older process asks for a shorter
     structure, it will only be given the bits it asks for.  If a newer
     process asks for a longer structure on an older kernel, the extra
     space will be set to 0.  In all cases, the size of the data actually
     available is returned.

     In essence, the size of a structure is that structure's version: a
     smaller size is an earlier version and a later version includes
     everything that the earlier version did.

 (3) New single-bit capability flags can be added.  This is a structure-typed
     attribute and, as such, (2) applies.  Any bits you wanted but the kernel
     doesn't support are automatically set to 0.

fsinfo() may be called like the following, for example:

	struct fsinfo_params params = {
		.at_flags	= AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW,
		.flags		= FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_PATH,
		.request	= FSINFO_ATTR_AFS_SERVER_ADDRESSES,
		.Nth		= 2,
	};
	struct fsinfo_server_address address;
	len = fsinfo(AT_FDCWD, "/afs/grand.central.org/doc", &params,
		     &address, sizeof(address));

The above example would query an AFS filesystem to retrieve the address
list for the 3rd server, and:

	struct fsinfo_params params = {
		.at_flags	= AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW,
		.flags		= FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_PATH,
		.request	= FSINFO_ATTR_AFS_CELL_NAME;
	};
	char cell_name[256];
	len = fsinfo(AT_FDCWD, "/afs/grand.central.org/doc", &params,
		     &cell_name, sizeof(cell_name));

would retrieve the name of an AFS cell as a string.

In future, I want to make fsinfo() capable of querying a context created by
fsopen() or fspick(), e.g.:

	fd = fsopen("ext4", 0);
	struct fsinfo_params params = {
		.flags		= FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_FSCONTEXT,
		.request	= FSINFO_ATTR_PARAMETERS;
	};
	char buffer[65536];
	fsinfo(fd, NULL, &params, &buffer, sizeof(buffer));

even if that context doesn't currently have a superblock attached.  I would
prefer this to contain length-prefixed strings so that there's no need to
insert escaping, especially as any character, including '\', can be used as
the separator in cifs and so that binary parameters can be returned (though
that is a lesser issue).


Two sample programs are provided, one to query filesystem attributes and
the other to display a mount subtree.  Both of them can be given a path or
a mount ID to start at.  Further, the watch_test sample program now watches
for mount events under "/" and for superblock events on whatever superblock
is backing "/mnt" when it the program is started.

The patches can be found here also:

on branch:

	fsinfo-core


===================
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
===================

 ver #17:

 (*) Applied comments from Jann Horn, Darrick Wong and Christian Brauner.

 (*) Rearranged the order in which fsinfo() does things so that the
     superblock operations table can have a function pointer rather than a
     table pointer.  The ->fsinfo() op is now called at least twice, once
     to determine the size of buffer needed and then to retrieve the data.
     If the retrieval step indicates yet more space is needed, the buffer
     will be expanded and that step repeated.

 (*) Merge the element size into the size in the fsinfo_attribute def and
     don't set size for strings or opaques.  Let a helper work that out.
     This means that strings can actually get larger then 4K.

 (*) A helper is provided to scan a list of attributes and call the
     appropriate get function.  This can be called from a filesystem's
     ->fsinfo() method multiple times.  It also handles attribute
     enumeration and info querying.

 (*) Rearranged the patches to put all the notification patches first.
     This allowed some of the bits to be squashed together.  At some point,
     I'll move the notification patches into a different branch.

 ver #16:

 (*) Split the features bits out of the fsinfo() core into their own patch
     and got rid of the name encoding attributes.

 (*) Renamed the 'array' type to 'list' and made AFS use it for returning
     server address lists.

 (*) Changed the ->fsinfo() method into an ->fsinfo_attributes[] table,
     where each attribute has a ->get() method to deal with it.  These
     tables can then be returned with an fsinfo meta attribute.

 (*) Dropped the fscontext query and parameter/description retrieval
     attributes for now.

 (*) Picked the mount topology attributes into this branch.

 (*) Picked the mount notifications into this branch and rebased on top of
     notifications-pipe-core.

 (*) Picked the superblock notifications into this branch.

 (*) Add sample code for Ext4 and NFS.

[PATCH 01/17] watch_queue: Add security hooks to rule on setting mount and sb watches [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:02:05

Add security hooks that will allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a watch
may be set on a mount or on a superblock.  More than one hook is required
as the watches watch different types of object.

[PATCH 02/17] watch_queue: Implement mount topology and attribute change notifications [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:02:15

Add a mount notification facility whereby notifications about changes in
mount topology and configuration can be received.  Note that this only
covers vfsmount topology changes and not superblock events.  A separate
facility will be added for that.

Every mount is given a change counter than counts the number of topological
rearrangements in which it is involved and the number of attribute changes
it undergoes.  This allows notification loss to be dealt with.  Later
patches will provide a way to quickly retrieve this value, along with
information about topology and parameters for the superblock.

Firstly, an event queue needs to be created:

	fd = open("/dev/event_queue", O_RDWR);
	ioctl(fd, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, page_size << n);

then a notification can be set up to report notifications via that queue:

	struct watch_notification_filter filter = {
		.nr_filters = 1,
		.filters = {
			[0] = {
				.type = WATCH_TYPE_MOUNT_NOTIFY,
				.subtype_filter[0] = UINT_MAX,
			},
		},
	};
	ioctl(fd, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter);
	watch_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/", 0, fd, 0x02);

In this case, it would let me monitor the mount topology subtree rooted at
"/" for events.  Mount notifications propagate up the tree towards the
root, so a watch will catch all of the events happening in the subtree
rooted at the watch.

After setting the watch, records will be placed into the queue when, for
example, as superblock switches between read-write and read-only.  Records
are of the following format:

	struct mount_notification {
		struct watch_notification watch;
		__u32	triggered_on;
		__u32	changed_mount;
	} *n;

Where:

	n->watch.type will be WATCH_TYPE_MOUNT_NOTIFY.

	n->watch.subtype will indicate the type of event, such as
	NOTIFY_MOUNT_NEW_MOUNT.

	n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH will indicate the length of the
	record.

	n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_ID will be the fifth argument to
	watch_mount(), shifted.

	n->watch.info & NOTIFY_MOUNT_IN_SUBTREE if true indicates that the
	notifcation was generated in the mount subtree rooted at the watch,
	and not actually in the watch itself.

	n->watch.info & NOTIFY_MOUNT_IS_RECURSIVE if true indicates that
	the notifcation was generated by an event (eg. SETATTR) that was
	applied recursively.  The notification is only generated for the
	object that initially triggered it.

	n->watch.info & NOTIFY_MOUNT_IS_NOW_RO will be used for
	NOTIFY_MOUNT_READONLY, being set if the superblock becomes R/O, and
	being cleared otherwise, and for NOTIFY_MOUNT_NEW_MOUNT, being set
	if the new mount is a submount (e.g. an automount).

	n->watch.info & NOTIFY_MOUNT_IS_SUBMOUNT if true indicates that the
	NOTIFY_MOUNT_NEW_MOUNT notification is in response to a mount
	performed by the kernel (e.g. an automount).

	n->triggered_on indicates the ID of the mount on which the watch
	was installed.

	n->changed_mount indicates the ID of the mount that was affected.

Note that it is permissible for event records to be of variable length -
or, at least, the length may be dependent on the subtype.  Note also that
the queue can be shared between multiple notifications of various types.

[PATCH 04/17] watch_queue: Introduce a non-repeating system-unique superblock ID [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:02:29

Introduce an (effectively) non-repeating system-unique superblock ID that
can be used to determine that two object are in the same superblock without
risking reuse of the ID in the meantime (as is possible with device IDs).

The ID is time-based to make it harder to use it as a covert communications
channel.

In future patches, this ID will be used to tag superblock notification
messages.  It will also be made queryable.

[PATCH 05/17] watch_queue: Add superblock notifications [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:02:40

Add a superblock event notification facility whereby notifications about
superblock events, such as I/O errors (EIO), quota limits being hit
(EDQUOT) and running out of space (ENOSPC) can be reported to a monitoring
process asynchronously.  Note that this does not cover vfsmount topology
changes.  watch_mount() is used for that.

Firstly, an event queue needs to be created:

	fd = open("/dev/event_queue", O_RDWR);
	ioctl(fd, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, page_size << n);

then a notification can be set up to report notifications via that queue:

	struct watch_notification_filter filter = {
		.nr_filters = 1,
		.filters = {
			[0] = {
				.type = WATCH_TYPE_SB_NOTIFY,
				.subtype_filter[0] = UINT_MAX,
			},
		},
	};
	ioctl(fd, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter);
	watch_sb(AT_FDCWD, "/home/dhowells", 0, fd, 0x03);

In this case, it would let me monitor my own homedir for events.  After
setting the watch, records will be placed into the queue when, for example,
as superblock switches between read-write and read-only.  Records are of
the following format:

	struct superblock_notification {
		struct watch_notification watch;
		__u64	sb_id;
	} *n;

Where:

	n->watch.type will be WATCH_TYPE_SB_NOTIFY.

	n->watch.subtype will indicate the type of event, such as
	NOTIFY_SUPERBLOCK_READONLY.

	n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH will indicate the length of the
	record.

	n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_ID will be the fifth argument to
	watch_sb(), shifted.

	n->watch.info & NOTIFY_SUPERBLOCK_IS_NOW_RO will be used for
	NOTIFY_SUPERBLOCK_READONLY, being set if the superblock becomes
	R/O, and being cleared otherwise.

	n->sb_id will be the ID of the superblock, as can be retrieved with
	the fsinfo() syscall, as part of the fsinfo_sb_notifications
	attribute in the the watch_id field.

Note that it is permissible for event records to be of variable length -
or, at least, the length may be dependent on the subtype.  Note also that
the queue can be shared between multiple notifications of various types.

[PATCH 06/17] watch_queue: sample: Display superblock notifications [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:02:46

The notification is run as:

	./watch_test

and it then watches "/mnt" for superblock notifications:

	# mount -t tmpfs none /mnt
	# ./watch_test &
	# mount -o remount,ro /mnt
	# mount -o remount,rw /mnt

producing:

	# ./watch_test
	NOTIFY[000]: ty=000003 sy=00 i=03010010
	SUPER 157eb57ca7 change=0[readonly]
	read() = 16
	NOTIFY[000]: ty=000002 sy=04 i=02010010
	MOUNT 000001a0 change=4[setattr] aux=0
	read() = 16
	NOTIFY[000]: ty=000002 sy=04 i=02010010
	MOUNT 000001a0 change=4[setattr] aux=0

[PATCH 07/17] fsinfo: Add fsinfo() syscall to query filesystem information [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:02:55

Add a system call to allow filesystem information to be queried.  A request
value can be given to indicate the desired attribute.  Support is provided
for enumerating multi-value attributes.

===============
NEW SYSTEM CALL
===============

The new system call looks like:

	int ret = fsinfo(int dfd,
			 const char *filename,
			 const struct fsinfo_params *params,
			 void *buffer,
			 size_t buf_size);

The params parameter optionally points to a block of parameters:

	struct fsinfo_params {
		__u32	at_flags;
		__u32	flags;
		__u32	request;
		__u32	Nth;
		__u32	Mth;
		__u64	__reserved[3];
	};

If params is NULL, it is assumed params->request should be
FSINFO_ATTR_STATFS, params->Nth should be 0, params->Mth should be 0,
params->at_flags should be 0 and params->flags should be 0.

If params is given, all of params->__reserved[] must be 0.

dfd, filename and params->at_flags indicate the file to query.  There is no
equivalent of lstat() as that can be emulated with fsinfo() by setting
AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in params->at_flags.  There is also no equivalent of
fstat() as that can be emulated by passing a NULL filename to fsinfo() with
the fd of interest in dfd.  AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT can also be used to an allow
automount point to be queried without triggering it.

params->request indicates the attribute/attributes to be queried.  This can
be one of:

	FSINFO_ATTR_STATFS		- statfs-style info
	FSINFO_ATTR_IDS			- Filesystem IDs
	FSINFO_ATTR_LIMITS		- Filesystem limits
	FSINFO_ATTR_SUPPORTS		- What's supported in statx(), IOC flags
	FSINFO_ATTR_TIMESTAMP_INFO	- Inode timestamp info
	FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_ID		- Volume ID (string)
	FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_UUID		- Volume UUID
	FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_NAME		- Volume name (string)
	FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTE_INFO - Information about attr Nth
	FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTES	- List of supported attrs

Some attributes (such as the servers backing a network filesystem) can have
multiple values.  These can be enumerated by setting params->Nth and
params->Mth to 0, 1, ... until ENODATA is returned.

buffer and buf_size point to the reply buffer.  The buffer is filled up to
the specified size, even if this means truncating the reply.  The full size
of the reply is returned.  In future versions, this will allow extra fields
to be tacked on to the end of the reply, but anyone not expecting them will
only get the subset they're expecting.  If either buffer of buf_size are 0,
no copy will take place and the data size will be returned.

At the moment, this will only work on x86_64 and i386 as it requires the
system call to be wired up.

Re: [PATCH 07/17] fsinfo: Add fsinfo() syscall to query filesystem information [ver #17]

From: Aleksa Sarai <hidden>
Date: 2020-02-26 02:29:39

On 2020-02-21, David Howells [off-list ref] wrote:
Add a system call to allow filesystem information to be queried.  A request
value can be given to indicate the desired attribute.  Support is provided
for enumerating multi-value attributes.

===============
NEW SYSTEM CALL
===============

The new system call looks like:

	int ret = fsinfo(int dfd,
			 const char *filename,
			 const struct fsinfo_params *params,
			 void *buffer,
			 size_t buf_size);

The params parameter optionally points to a block of parameters:

	struct fsinfo_params {
		__u32	at_flags;
		__u32	flags;
		__u32	request;
		__u32	Nth;
		__u32	Mth;
		__u64	__reserved[3];
	};

If params is NULL, it is assumed params->request should be
FSINFO_ATTR_STATFS, params->Nth should be 0, params->Mth should be 0,
params->at_flags should be 0 and params->flags should be 0.

If params is given, all of params->__reserved[] must be 0.
I would suggest that rather than having a reserved field for future
extensions, you make use of copy_struct_from_user() and have extensible
structs:

	int ret = fsinfo(int dfd,
			 const char *filename,
			 struct fsinfo_params *params,
			 size_t params_usize,
			 void *buffer,
			 size_t buf_usize);

 	struct fsinfo_params {
 		__u64	flags;
 		__u32	at_flags;
 		__u32	request;
 		__u32	Nth;
 		__u32	Mth;
 	};

I dropped the "const" on fsinfo_params because the planned CHECK_FiELDS
feature for extensible-struct syscalls requires writing to the struct. I
also switched the flags field to u64 because CHECK_FiELDS is intended to
use (1<<63) for all syscalls (this has the nice benefit of removing the
need of a padding field entirely).
dfd, filename and params->at_flags indicate the file to query.  There is no
equivalent of lstat() as that can be emulated with fsinfo() by setting
AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in params->at_flags.
Minor gripe -- can we make the default be AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW and you
need to explicitly pass AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW? Accidentally following
symlinks is a constant source of security bugs.
There is also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by
passing a NULL filename to fsinfo() with the fd of interest in dfd.
Presumably you also need to pass AT_EMPTY_PATH?
params->request indicates the attribute/attributes to be queried.  This can
be one of:

	FSINFO_ATTR_STATFS		- statfs-style info
	FSINFO_ATTR_IDS			- Filesystem IDs
	FSINFO_ATTR_LIMITS		- Filesystem limits
	FSINFO_ATTR_SUPPORTS		- What's supported in statx(), IOC flags
	FSINFO_ATTR_TIMESTAMP_INFO	- Inode timestamp info
	FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_ID		- Volume ID (string)
	FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_UUID		- Volume UUID
	FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_NAME		- Volume name (string)
	FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTE_INFO - Information about attr Nth
	FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTES	- List of supported attrs

Some attributes (such as the servers backing a network filesystem) can have
multiple values.  These can be enumerated by setting params->Nth and
params->Mth to 0, 1, ... until ENODATA is returned.

buffer and buf_size point to the reply buffer.  The buffer is filled up to
the specified size, even if this means truncating the reply.  The full size
of the reply is returned.  In future versions, this will allow extra fields
to be tacked on to the end of the reply, but anyone not expecting them will
only get the subset they're expecting.  If either buffer of buf_size are 0,
no copy will take place and the data size will be returned.
Sounds good, though I think we should zero-fill the tail end of the
buffer (if the buffer is larger than the in-kernel one). This is
basically what a theoretical copy_struct_to_user() would do. It will
also ensure that CHECK_FiELDS will act consistently on a syscall that
has two extensible struct arguments.
quoted hunk
At the moment, this will only work on x86_64 and i386 as it requires the
system call to be wired up.

Re: [PATCH 07/17] fsinfo: Add fsinfo() syscall to query filesystem information [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Aleksa Sarai [off-list ref] wrote:

If params is given, all of params->__reserved[] must be 0.
I would suggest that rather than having a reserved field for future
extensions, you make use of copy_struct_from_user() and have extensible
structs:
Yeah.  I seem to recall that special support was required for 6-arg syscalls
on some arches, though I could move the dfd argument into the parameter block
and make AT_FDCWD the default.
I dropped the "const" on fsinfo_params because the planned CHECK_FiELDS
feature for extensible-struct syscalls requires writing to the struct.
Ummm...  Why?  You shouldn't be trying to alter the parameters structure.  It
could feasibly be stored static const in userspace (though I'm not sure how
likely it would be that someone would do that).
I also switched the flags field to u64 because CHECK_FiELDS is intended to
use (1<<63) for all syscalls (this has the nice benefit of removing the need
of a padding field entirely).
 	struct fsinfo_params {
 		__u32	flags;
 		__u32	at_flags;
 		__u32	request;
 		__u32	Nth;
 		__u32	Mth;
 	};

What padding? ;-)

Though possibly the struct does need forcing to 64-bit alignment for future
expansion.
quoted
dfd, filename and params->at_flags indicate the file to query.  There is no
equivalent of lstat() as that can be emulated with fsinfo() by setting
AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in params->at_flags.
Minor gripe -- can we make the default be AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW and you
need to explicitly pass AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW? Accidentally following
symlinks is a constant source of security bugs.
Someone else has said that all new syscalls should be using RESOLVE_* flags in
preference to AT_* flags (even though RESOLVE_* flags are not a superset of
AT_* flags and appear to be in a header named specifically for the openat2()
syscall, not generic).

I'm not sure who authored openat2.h, but they went with a RESOLVE_NO_SYMLINKS
rather than a RESOLVE_SYMLINKS ;-)
quoted
There is also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by
passing a NULL filename to fsinfo() with the fd of interest in dfd.
Presumably you also need to pass AT_EMPTY_PATH?
Actually, you need to set FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_FD in fsinfo_params::flags.  I
need to update the description for this.
Sounds good, though I think we should zero-fill the tail end of the
buffer (if the buffer is larger than the in-kernel one).
I do that.  I should make it clearer in the patch description.

[PATCH 08/17] fsinfo: Provide a bitmap of supported features [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:03:04

Provide a bitmap of features that a filesystem may provide for the path
being queried.  Features include such things as:

 (1) The general class of filesystem, such as kernel-interface,
     block-based, flash-based, network-based.

 (2) Supported inode features, such as which timestamps are supported,
     whether simple numeric user, group or project IDs are supported and
     whether user identification is actually more complex behind the
     scenes.

 (3) Supported volume features, such as it having a UUID, a name or a
     filesystem ID.

 (4) Supported filesystem features, such as what types of file are
     supported, whether sparse files, extended attributes and quotas are
     supported.

 (5) Supported interface features, such as whether locking and leases are
     supported, what open flags are honoured and how i_version is managed.

For some filesystems, this may be an immutable set and can just be memcpy'd
into the reply buffer.

[PATCH 09/17] fsinfo: Allow fsinfo() to look up a mount object by ID [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:03:09

Allow the fsinfo() syscall to look up a mount object by ID rather than by
pathname.  This is necessary as there can be multiple mounts stacked up at
the same pathname and there's no way to look through them otherwise.

This is done by passing FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_MOUNT to fsinfo() in the
parameters and then passing the mount ID as a string to fsinfo() in place
of the filename:

	struct fsinfo_params params = {
		.flags	 = FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_MOUNT,
		.request = FSINFO_ATTR_IDS,
	};

	ret = fsinfo(AT_FDCWD, "21", &params, buffer, sizeof(buffer));

The caller is only permitted to query a mount object if the root directory
of that mount connects directly to the current chroot if dfd == AT_FDCWD[*]
or the directory specified by dfd otherwise.  Note that this is not
available to the pathwalk of any other syscall.

[*] This needs to be something other than AT_FDCWD, perhaps AT_FDROOT.

[!] This probably needs an LSM hook.

[!] This might want to check the permissions on all the intervening dirs -
    but it would have to do that under RCU conditions.

[!] This might want to check a CAP_* flag.

[PATCH 10/17] fsinfo: Allow mount information to be queried [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:03:18

Allow mount information, including information about the topology tree to
be queried with the fsinfo() system call.  Setting AT_FSINFO_QUERY_MOUNT
allows overlapping mounts to be queried by indicating that the syscall
should interpet the pathname as a number indicating the mount ID.

To this end, four fsinfo() attributes are provided:

 (1) FSINFO_ATTR_MOUNT_INFO.

     This is a structure providing information about a mount, including:

	- Mounted superblock ID.
	- Mount ID (can be used with AT_FSINFO_QUERY_MOUNT).
	- Parent mount ID.
	- Mount attributes (eg. R/O, NOEXEC).
	- A change counter.

     Note that the parent mount ID is overridden to the ID of the queried
     mount if the parent lies outside of the chroot or dfd tree.

 (2) FSINFO_ATTR_MOUNT_DEVNAME.

     This a string providing the device name associated with the mount.

     Note that the device name may be a path that lies outside of the root.

 (3) FSINFO_ATTR_MOUNT_POINT.

     This is a string indicating the name of the mountpoint within the
     parent mount, limited to the parent's mounted root and the chroot.

 (4) FSINFO_ATTR_MOUNT_CHILDREN.

     This produces an array of structures, one for each child and capped
     with one for the argument mount (checked after listing all the
     children).  Each element contains the mount ID and the change counter
     of the respective mount object.

And clipped to nothing if outside current root.  The code doesn't
appear to care, which to me seems like a hole.

And btw, what is the point of only showing path relative to parent
mount?  This way it's impossible to get a consistent path from root
due to mount/dentry tree changes between calls to fsinfo().

Thanks,
Miklos

[PATCH 13/17] fsinfo: Query superblock unique ID and notification counter [ver #17]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-02-21 18:03:41

Provide an fsinfo attribute to query the superblock unique ID and
notification counter.  The unique ID is placed in notification events and
the counted it provided so that the changed superblock can be determined in
the event of a notification buffer overrun.  This is accessed with:

	struct fsinfo_params params = {
		.request = FSINFO_ATTR_SB_NOTIFICATIONS,
	};

and returns a structure that looks like:

	struct fsinfo_sb_notifications {
		__u64	watch_id;
		__u32	notify_counter;
		__u32	__reserved[1];
	};

Where watch_id is a number uniquely identifying the superblock in
notification records and notify_counter is incremented for each
superblock notification posted.

+============================
+Filesystem Information Query
+============================
+
+The fsinfo() system call allows the querying of filesystem and filesystem
+security information beyond what stat(), statx() and statfs() can obtain.  It
+does not require a file to be opened as does ioctl().
+
+fsinfo() may be called with a path, with open file descriptor or a with a mount
+object identifier.
+
+The fsinfo() system call needs to be configured on by enabling:
+
+	"File systems"/"Enable the fsinfo() system call" (CONFIG_FSINFO)
+
+This document has the following sections:
+
+.. contents:: :local:
+
+
+Overview
+========
+
+The fsinfo() system call retrieves one of a number of attributes, the IDs of
+which can be found in include/uapi/linux/fsinfo.h::
+
+	FSINFO_ATTR_STATFS	- statfs()-style state
+	FSINFO_ATTR_IDS		- Filesystem IDs
+	FSINFO_ATTR_LIMITS	- Filesystem limits
+	...
+	FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTE_INFO - Information about an attribute
+	FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTES - List of available attributes
+	...
+	FSINFO_ATTR_MOUNT_INFO	- Information about the mount topology
+	...
+
+Each attribute can have zero or more values, which can be of one of the
+following types:
+
+ * ``VStruct``.  This is a structure with a version-dependent length.  New
+   versions of the kernel may append more fields, though they are not
+   permitted to remove or replace old ones.
+
+   Older applications, expecting an older version of the field, can ask for a
+   shorter struct and will only get the fields they requested; newer
+   applications running on an older kernel will get the extra fields they
+   requested filled with zeros.  Either way, the system call returns the size
+   of the internal struct, regardless of how much data it returned.
+
+   This allows for struct-type fields to be extended in future.
+
+ * ``String``.  This is a variable-length string of up to 4096 characters (no
+   NUL character is included).  The returned string will be truncated if the
+   output buffer is too small.  The total size of the string is returned,
+   regardless of any truncation.
+
+ * ``Opaque``.  This is a variable-length blob of indeterminate structure.  It
+   may be up to INT_MAX bytes in size.
+
+ * ``List``.  This is a variable-length list of fixed-size structures.  The
+   element size may not vary over time, so the element format must be designed
+   with care.  The maximum length is INT_MAX bytes, though this depends on the
+   kernel being able to allocate an internal buffer large enough.
+
+Value type is an inherent propery of an attribute and all the values of an
+attribute must be of that type.  Each attribute can have a single value, a
+sequence of values or a sequence-of-sequences of values.
+
+
+Filesystem API
+==============
+
+If the filesystem wishes to provide a list of queryable attributes, it should
+set the table pointer in the superblock::
+
+	const struct fsinfo_attribute *fsinfo_attributes;
+
+terminating it with a blank entry.  Each entry is a ``struct fsinfo_attribute``
+and these can be created with a set of helper macros::
+
+	FSINFO_VSTRUCT(A,G)
+	FSINFO_VSTRUCT_N(A,G)
+	FSINFO_VSTRUCT_NM(A,G)
+	FSINFO_STRING(A,G)
+	FSINFO_STRING_N(A,G)
+	FSINFO_STRING_NM(A,G)
+	FSINFO_OPAQUE(A,G)
+	FSINFO_LIST(A,G)
+	FSINFO_LIST_N(A,G)
+
+The names of the macro are a combination of type (vstruct, string, opaque and
+list) and an optional qualifier, if the attribute has N values or N lots of M
+values.  ``A`` is the name of the attribute and ``G`` is a function to get a
+value for that attribute.
+
+For vstruct- and list-type attributes, it is expected that there is a macro
+defined with the name ``A##__STRUCT`` that indicates the structure or element
+type.
+
+The get function needs to match the following type::
+
+	int (*get)(struct path *path, struct fsinfo_context *ctx);
+
+where "path" indicates the object to be queried and ctx is a context describing
+the parameters and the output buffer.  The function should return the total
+size of the data it would like to produce or an error.
+
+The parameter struct looks like::
+
+	struct fsinfo_context {
+		__u32		requested_attr;
+		__u32		Nth;
+		__u32		Mth;
+		bool		want_size_only;
+		unsigned int	buf_size;
+		unsigned int	usage;
+		void		*buffer;
+		...
+	};
+
+The fields relevant to the filesystem are as follows:
+
+ * ``requested_attr``
+
+   Which attribute is being requested.  EOPNOTSUPP should be returned if the
+   attribute is not supported by the filesystem or the LSM.
+
+ * ``Nth`` and ``Mth``
+
+   Which value of an attribute is being requested.
+
+   For a single-value attribute Nth and Mth will both be 0.
+
+   For a "1D" attribute, Nth will indicate which value and Mth will always
+   be 0.  Take, for example, FSINFO_ATTR_SERVER_NAME - for a network
+   filesystem, the superblock will be backed by a number of servers.  This will
+   return the name of the Nth server.  ENODATA will be returned if Nth goes
+   beyond the end of the array.
+
+   For a "2D" attribute, Mth will indicate the index in the Nth set of values.
+   Take, for example, an attribute for a network filesystems that returns
+   server addresses - each server may have one or more addresses.  This could
+   return the Mth address of the Nth server.  ENODATA should be returned if the
+   Nth set doesn't exist or the Mth element of the Nth set doesn't exist.
+
+ * ``want_size_only``
+
+   Is set to true if the caller only wants the size of the value so that the
+   get function doesn't have to make expensive calculations or calls to
+   retrieve the value.
+
+ * ``buf_size``
+
+   This indicates the current size of the buffer.  For the list type and the
+   opaque type this will be increased if the current buffer won't hold the
+   value and the filesystem will be called again.
+
+ * ``usage``
+
+   This indicates how much of the buffer has been used so far for an list or
+   opaque type attribute.  This is updated by the fsinfo_note_param*()
+   functions.
+
+ * ``buffer``
+
+   This points to the output buffer.  For struct- and string-type attributes it
+   will always be big enough; for list- and opaque-type, it will be buf_size in
+   size and will be resized if the returned size is larger than this.
+
+To simplify filesystem code, there will always be at least a minimal buffer
+available if the ->fsinfo() method gets called - and the filesystem should
+always write what it can into the buffer.  It's possible that the fsinfo()
+system call will then throw the contents away and just return the length.
+
+
+Helper Functions
+================
+
+The API includes a number of helper functions:

+
+Attribute Catalogue
+===================
+
+A number of the attributes convey information about a filesystem superblock:
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_STATFS``
+
+    This struct-type attribute gives most of the equivalent data to statfs(),
+    but with all the fields as unconditional 64-bit or 128-bit integers.  Note
+    that static data like IDs that don't change are retrieved with
+    FSINFO_ATTR_IDS instead.
+
+    Further, superblock flags (such as MS_RDONLY) are not exposed by this
+    attribute; rather the parameters must be listed and the attributes picked
+    out from that.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_IDS``
+
+    This struct-type attribute conveys various identifiers used by the target
+    filesystem.  This includes the filesystem name, the NFS filesystem ID, the
+    superblock ID used in notifications, the filesystem magic type number and
+    the primary device ID.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_LIMITS``
+
+    This struct-type attribute conveys the limits on various aspects of a
+    filesystem, such as maximum file, symlink and xattr sizes, maxiumm filename
+    and xattr name length, maximum number of symlinks, maximum device major and
+    minor numbers and maximum UID, GID and project ID numbers.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_SUPPORTS``
+
+    This struct-type attribute conveys information about the support the
+    filesystem has for various UAPI features of a filesystem.  This includes
+    information about which bits are supported in various masks employed by the
+    statx system call, what FS_IOC_* flags are supported by ioctls and what
+    DOS/Windows file attribute flags are supported.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_TIMESTAMP_INFO``
+
+    This struct-type attribute conveys information about the resolution and
+    range of the timestamps available in a filesystem.  The resolutions are
+    given as a mantissa and exponent (resolution = mantissa * 10^exponent
+    seconds), where the exponent can be negative to indicate a sub-second
+    resolution (-9 being nanoseconds, for example).
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_ID``
+
+    This is a string-type attribute that conveys the superblock identifier for
+    the volume.  By default it will be filled in from the contents of s_id from
+    the superblock.  For a block-based filesystem, for example, this might be
+    the name of the primary block device.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_UUID``
+
+    This is a struct-type attribute that conveys the UUID identifier for the
+    volume.  By default it will be filled in from the contents of s_uuid from
+    the superblock.  If this doesn't exist, it will be an entirely zeros.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_VOLUME_NAME``
+
+    This is a string-type attribute that conveys the name of the volume.  By
+    default it will return EOPNOTSUPP.  For a disk-based filesystem, it might
+    convey the partition label; for a network-based filesystem, it might convey
+    the name of the remote volume.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_FEATURES``
+
+    This is a special attribute, being a set of single-bit feature flags,
+    formatted as struct-type attribute.  The meanings of the feature bits are
+    listed below - see the "Feature Bit Catalogue" section.  The feature bits
+    are grouped numerically into bytes, such that features 0-7 are in byte 0,
+    8-15 are in byte 1, 16-23 in byte 2 and so on.
+
+    Any feature bit that's not supported by the kernel will be set to false if
+    asked for.  The highest supported feature can be obtained from attribute
+    "FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO".
+
+
+Some attributes give information about fsinfo itself:
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTE_INFO``
+
+    This struct-type attribute gives metadata about the attribute with the ID
+    specified by the Nth parameter, including its type, default size and
+    element size.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTES``
+
+    This list-type attribute gives a list of the attribute IDs available at the
+    point of reference.  FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO_ATTRIBUTE_INFO can then be used to
+    query each attribute.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_FSINFO``
+
+    This struct-type attribute gives information about the fsinfo() system call
+    itself, including the maximum number of feature bits supported.
+
+
+Then there are filesystem-specific attributes, e.g.:
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_AFS_CELL_NAME``
+
+    This is a string-type attribute that retrieves the AFS cell name of the
+    target object.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_AFS_SERVER_NAME``
+
+    This is a string-type attribute that conveys the name of the Nth server
+    backing a network-filesystem superblock.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_ATTR_AFS_SERVER_ADDRESSES``
+
+    This is a list-type attribute that conveys the Mth address of the Nth
+    server, as returned by FSINFO_ATTR_SERVER_NAME.
+
+
+Feature Bit Catalogue
+=====================
+
+The feature bits convey single true/false assertions about a specific instance
+of a filesystem (ie. a specific superblock).  They are accessed using the
+"FSINFO_ATTR_FEATURE" attribute:
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IS_KERNEL_FS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IS_BLOCK_FS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IS_FLASH_FS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IS_NETWORK_FS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IS_AUTOMOUNTER_FS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IS_MEMORY_FS``
+
+    These indicate what kind of filesystem the target is: kernel API (proc),
+    block-based (ext4), flash/nvm-based (jffs2), remote over the network (NFS),
+    local quasi-filesystem that acts as a tray of mountpoints (autofs), plain
+    in-memory filesystem (shmem).
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_AUTOMOUNTS``
+
+    This indicate if a filesystem may have objects that are automount points.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_ADV_LOCKS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_MAND_LOCKS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_LEASES``
+
+    These indicate if a filesystem supports advisory locks, mandatory locks or
+    leases.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_UIDS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_GIDS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_PROJIDS``
+
+    These indicate if a filesystem supports/stores/transports numeric user IDs,
+    group IDs or project IDs.  The "FSINFO_ATTR_LIMITS" attribute can be used
+    to find out the upper limits on the IDs values.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_STRING_USER_IDS``
+
+    This indicates if a filesystem supports/stores/transports string user
+    identifiers.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_GUID_USER_IDS``
+
+    This indicates if a filesystem supports/stores/transports Windows GUIDs as
+    user identifiers (eg. ntfs).
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_WINDOWS_ATTRS``
+
+    This indicates if a filesystem supports Windows FILE_* attribute bits
+    (eg. cifs, jfs).  The "FSINFO_ATTR_SUPPORTS" attribute can be used to find
+    out which windows file attributes are supported by the filesystem.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_USER_QUOTAS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_GROUP_QUOTAS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_PROJECT_QUOTAS``
+
+    These indicate if a filesystem supports quotas for users, groups or
+    projects.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_XATTRS``
+
+    These indicate if a filesystem supports extended attributes.  The
+    "FSINFO_ATTR_LIMITS" attribute can be used to find out the upper limits on
+    the supported name and body lengths.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_JOURNAL``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_DATA_IS_JOURNALLED``
+
+    These indicate whether the filesystem has a journal and whether data
+    changes are logged to it.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_O_SYNC``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_O_DIRECT``
+
+    These indicate whether the filesystem supports the O_SYNC and O_DIRECT
+    flags.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_VOLUME_ID``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_VOLUME_UUID``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_VOLUME_NAME``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_VOLUME_FSID``
+
+    These indicate whether ID, UUID, name and FSID identifiers actually exist
+    in the filesystem and thus might be considered persistent.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IVER_ALL_CHANGE``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IVER_DATA_CHANGE``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_IVER_MONO_INCR``
+
+    These indicate whether i_version in the inode is supported and, if so, what
+    mode it operates in.  The first two indicate if it's changed for any data
+    or metadata change, or whether it's only changed for any data changes; the
+    last indicates whether or not it's monotonically increasing for each such
+    change.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_HARD_LINKS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_HARD_LINKS_1DIR``
+
+    These indicate whether the filesystem can have hard links made in it, and
+    whether they can be made between directory or only within the same
+    directory.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_DIRECTORIES``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_SYMLINKS``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_DEVICE_FILES``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_UNIX_SPECIALS``
+
+    These indicate whether directories; symbolic links; device files; or pipes
+    and sockets can be made within the filesystem.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_RESOURCE_FORKS``
+
+    This indicates if the filesystem supports resource forks.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_NAME_CASE_INDEP``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_NAME_NON_UTF8``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_NAME_HAS_CODEPAGE``
+
+    These indicate if the filesystem supports case-independent file names,
+    whether the filenames are non-utf8 (see the "FSINFO_ATTR_NAME_ENCODING"
+    attribute) and whether a codepage is in use to transliterate them (see
+    the "FSINFO_ATTR_NAME_CODEPAGE" attribute).
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_SPARSE``
+
+    This indicates if a filesystem supports sparse files.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_NOT_PERSISTENT``
+
+    This indicates if a filesystem is not persistent.
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_NO_UNIX_MODE``
+
+    This indicates if a filesystem doesn't support UNIX mode bits (though they
+    may be manufactured from other bits, such as Windows file attribute flags).
+
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_HAS_ATIME``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_HAS_BTIME``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_HAS_CTIME``
+ *  ``FSINFO_FEAT_HAS_MTIME``
+
+    These indicate which timestamps a filesystem supports (access, birth,
+    change, modify).  The range and resolutions can be queried with the
+    "FSINFO_ATTR_TIMESTAMPS" attribute).

============================
FILESYSTEM INFORMATION QUERY
============================

The fsinfo() system call allows information about the filesystem at a
particular path point to be queried as a set of attributes, some of
which may have more than one value.

Attribute values are of four basic types:

 (1) Version dependent-length structure (size defined by type).

 (2) Variable-length string (up to 4096, including NUL).

 (3) List of structures (up to INT_MAX size).

 (4) Opaque blob (up to INT_MAX size).

Attributes can have multiple values either as a sequence of values or
a sequence-of-sequences of values and all the values of a particular
attribute must be of the same type.

Note that the values of an attribute *are* allowed to vary between
dentries within a single superblock, depending on the specific dentry
that you're looking at, but all the values of an attribute have to be
of the same type.

I've tried to make the interface as light as possible, so
integer/enum attribute selector rather than string and the core does
all the allocation and extensibility support work rather than leaving
that to the filesystems. That means that for the first two attribute
types, the filesystem will always see a sufficiently-sized buffer
allocated.  Further, this removes the possibility of the filesystem
gaining access to the userspace buffer.


fsinfo() allows a variety of information to be retrieved about a
filesystem and the mount topology:

 (1) General superblock attributes:

     - Filesystem identifiers (UUID, volume label, device numbers,
...)
     - The limits on a filesystem's capabilities
     - Information on supported statx fields and attributes and IOC
flags.
     - A variety single-bit flags indicating supported capabilities.
     - Timestamp resolution and range.
     - The amount of space/free space in a filesystem (as statfs()).
     - Superblock notification counter.

 (2) Filesystem-specific superblock attributes:

     - Superblock-level timestamps.
     - Cell name.
     - Server names and addresses.
     - Filesystem-specific information.

 (3) VFS information:

     - Mount topology information.
     - Mount attributes.
     - Mount notification counter.

 (4) Information about what the fsinfo() syscall itself supports,
including
     the type and struct/element size of attributes.

The system is extensible:

 (1) New attributes can be added.  There is no requirement that a
     filesystem implement every attribute.  Note that the core VFS
keeps a
     table of types and sizes so it can handle future extensibility
rather
     than delegating this to the filesystems.

 (2) Version length-dependent structure attributes can be made larger
and
     have additional information tacked on the end, provided it keeps
the
     layout of the existing fields.  If an older process asks for a
shorter
     structure, it will only be given the bits it asks for.  If a
newer
     process asks for a longer structure on an older kernel, the
extra
     space will be set to 0.  In all cases, the size of the data
actually
     available is returned.

     In essence, the size of a structure is that structure's version:
a
     smaller size is an earlier version and a later version includes
     everything that the earlier version did.

 (3) New single-bit capability flags can be added.  This is a
structure-typed
     attribute and, as such, (2) applies.  Any bits you wanted but
the kernel
     doesn't support are automatically set to 0.

fsinfo() may be called like the following, for example:

	struct fsinfo_params params = {
		.at_flags	= AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW,
		.flags		= FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_PATH,
		.request	= FSINFO_ATTR_AFS_SERVER_ADDRESSES,
		.Nth		= 2,
	};
	struct fsinfo_server_address address;
	len = fsinfo(AT_FDCWD, "/afs/grand.central.org/doc", &params,
		     &address, sizeof(address));

The above example would query an AFS filesystem to retrieve the
address
list for the 3rd server, and:

	struct fsinfo_params params = {
		.at_flags	= AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW,
		.flags		= FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_PATH,
		.request	= FSINFO_ATTR_AFS_CELL_NAME;
	};
	char cell_name[256];
	len = fsinfo(AT_FDCWD, "/afs/grand.central.org/doc", &params,
		     &cell_name, sizeof(cell_name));

would retrieve the name of an AFS cell as a string.

In future, I want to make fsinfo() capable of querying a context
created by
fsopen() or fspick(), e.g.:

	fd = fsopen("ext4", 0);
	struct fsinfo_params params = {
		.flags		= FSINFO_FLAGS_QUERY_FSCONTEXT,
		.request	= FSINFO_ATTR_PARAMETERS;
	};
	char buffer[65536];
	fsinfo(fd, NULL, &params, &buffer, sizeof(buffer));

even if that context doesn't currently have a superblock attached.  I
would prefer this to contain length-prefixed strings so that there's
no need to insert escaping, especially as any character, including
'\', can be used as the separator in cifs and so that binary
parameters can be returned (though that is a lesser issue).
Could I make a suggestion about how this should be done in a way that
doesn't actually require the fsinfo syscall at all: it could just be
done with fsconfig.  The idea is based on something I've wanted to do
for configfd but couldn't because otherwise it wouldn't substitute for
fsconfig, but Christian made me think it was actually essential to the
ability of the seccomp and other verifier tools in the critique of
configfd and I belive the same critique applies here.

Instead of making fsconfig functionally configure ... as in you pass
the attribute name, type and parameters down into the fs specific
handler and the handler does a string match and then verifies the
parameters and then acts on them, make it table configured, so what
each fstype does is register a table of attributes which can be got and
optionally set (with each attribute having a get and optional set
function).  We'd have multiple tables per fstype, so the generic VFS
can register a table of attributes it understands for every fstype
(things like name, uuid and the like) and then each fs type would
register a table of fs specific attributes following the same pattern. 
The system would examine the fs specific table before the generic one,
allowing overrides.  fsconfig would have the ability to both get and
set attributes, permitting retrieval as well as setting (which is how I
get rid of the fsinfo syscall), we'd have a global parameter, which
would retrieve the entire table by name and type so the whole thing is
introspectable because the upper layer knows a-priori all the
attributes which can be set for a given fs type and what type they are
(so we can make more of the parsing generic).  Any attribute which
doesn't have a set routine would be read only and all attributes would
have to have a get routine meaning everything is queryable.

I think I know how to code this up in a way that would be fully
transparent to the existing syscalls.

And that makes me wonder: would a
"/sys/class/fs/$ST_DEV/options/$OPTION" type interface be feasible for
this?

Could I make a suggestion about how this should be done in a way
that doesn't actually require the fsinfo syscall at all: it could
just be done with fsconfig.  The idea is based on something I've
wanted to do for configfd but couldn't because otherwise it
wouldn't substitute for fsconfig, but Christian made me think it
was actually essential to the ability of the seccomp and other
verifier tools in the critique of configfd and I belive the same
critique applies here.

Instead of making fsconfig functionally configure ... as in you
pass the attribute name, type and parameters down into the fs
specific handler and the handler does a string match and then
verifies the parameters and then acts on them, make it table
configured, so what each fstype does is register a table of
attributes which can be got and optionally set (with each attribute
having a get and optional set function).  We'd have multiple tables
per fstype, so the generic VFS can register a table of attributes
it understands for every fstype (things like name, uuid and the
like) and then each fs type would register a table of fs specific
attributes following the same pattern. The system would examine the
fs specific table before the generic one, allowing
overrides.  fsconfig would have the ability to both get and
set attributes, permitting retrieval as well as setting (which is
how I get rid of the fsinfo syscall), we'd have a global parameter,
which would retrieve the entire table by name and type so the whole
thing is introspectable because the upper layer knows a-priori all
the attributes which can be set for a given fs type and what type
they are (so we can make more of the parsing generic).  Any
attribute which doesn't have a set routine would be read only and
all attributes would have to have a get routine meaning everything
is queryable.
And that makes me wonder: would a
"/sys/class/fs/$ST_DEV/options/$OPTION" type interface be feasible
for this?
Once it's table driven, certainly a sysfs directory becomes possible. 
The problem with ST_DEV is filesystems like btrfs and xfs that may have
multiple devices.  The current fsinfo takes a fspick'd directory fd so
the input to the query is a path, which gets messy in sysfs, although I
could see something like /sys/class/fs/mount/<path>/$OPTION working.

We need a unique id for superblocks anyway. I had wondered about using 
s_dev some time back, but for the reasons mentioned earlier in this 
thread I think it might just land up being confusing and difficult to 
manage. While fake s_devs are created for sbs that don't have a device, 
I can't help thinking that something closer to ifindex, but for 
superblocks, is needed here. That would avoid the issue of which device 
number to use.

In fact we need that anyway for the notifications, since without that 
there is a race that can lead to missing remounts of the same device, in 
case a umount/mount pair is missed due to an overrun, and then fsinfo 
returns the same device as before, with potentially the same mount 
options too. So I think a unique id for a superblock is a generically 
useful feature, which would also allow for sensible sysfs directory 
naming, if required,

That is a different question though, or at least it might be... the idea 
of the superblock id is to uniquely identify a particular superblock. 
The mount notification should give you the association between that 
superblock and any devices (assuming those are applicable), or you can 
use fsinfo if you were not listening to the notifications at the time of 
the mount to get the same information.

If someone unmounts /run and remounts it, then the superblock id would 
change, but otherwise it would stay the same, so you know that it is the 
same mount that is being described in future notifications. One of the 
main aims here being to combine the fsinfo information with the 
notifications in a race free manner.

There are a number of ways one might want to specify a filesystem: by 
device, by uuid, by volume label and so forth but we can't use any of 
those very easily as a unique id. Someone might remove a drive and 
replace it with a different one (so same device, but different content) 
or they might have two filesystems with the same uuid if they've just 
done a dd copy to a new device. For the mount notifications we need 
something that doesn't suffer from these issues, but which can also be 
very easily associated with what in most cases are more convenient ways 
to specify a particular filesystem.

The other thing a file descriptor does that sysfs doesn't is that it
solves the information leak: if I'm in a mount namespace that has no
access to certain mounts, I can't fspick them and thus I can't see the
information.  By default, with sysfs I can.

Yes, thats true, and I wasn't advocating for the sysfs method over 
fspick here, just pointing out that a unique superblock id would be a 
generically useful thing to have,

That's true, but procfs/sysfs has to deal with various namespacing
issues anyway.  If this is just about hiding a number of entries, then
I don't think that's going to be a big deal.

The syscall API is efficient: single syscall per query instead of
several, no parsing necessary.

However, it is difficult to extend, because the ABI must be updated,
possibly libc and util-linux also, so that scripts can also consume
the new parameter.  With the sysfs approach only the kernel needs to
be updated, and possibly only the filesystem code, not even the VFS.

So I think the question comes down to:  do we need a highly efficient
way to query the superblock parameters all at once, or not?

That is Ian's use case for autofs I think, and it will also be what is 
needed at start up of most applications using the fs notifications, as 
well as at resync time if there has been an overrun leading to lost fs 
notification messages. We do need a solution that can scale to large 
numbers of mounts efficiently. Being able to extend it is also an 
important consideration too, so hopefully David has a solution to that,

Steve.

I didn't see name space considerations in sysfs when I was looking at
it recently. Obeying name space requirements is likely a lot of work
in sysfs.

So I think the question comes down to:  do we need a highly efficient
way to query the superblock parameters all at once, or not?
Or a similar question could be, how could a sysfs interface work
to provide mount information.

Getting information about all mounts might not be too bad but the
sysfs directory structure that would be needed to represent all
system mounts (without considering name spaces) would likely
result in somewhat busy user space code.

For example, given a path, and the path is all I know, how do I
get mount information?

Ignoring possible multiple mounts on a mount point, call fsinfo()
with the path and get the id (the path walk is low overhead) to
use with fsinfo() to get the all the info I need ... done.

Again, ignoring possible multiple mounts on a mount point, and
assuming there is a sysfs tree enumerating all the system mounts.
I could open <sysfs base> + mount point path followed buy opening
and reading the individual attribute files ... a bit more busy
that one ... particularly if I need to do it for several thousand
mounts.

Then there's the code that would need to be added to maintain the
various views in the sysfs tree, which can't be restricted only to
the VFS because there's file system specific info needed too (the
maintain a table idea), and that's before considering name space
handling changes to sysfs.

At the least the question of "do we need a highly efficient way
to query the superblock parameters all at once" needs to be
extended to include mount table enumeration as well as getting
the info.

But this is just me thinking about mount table handling and the
quite significant problem we now have with user space scanning
the proc mount tables to get this information.

Right.

So the problem is that currently autofs needs to rescan the proc mount
table on every change.   The solution to that is to

For the notification we have uevents in sysfs, which also supplies the

Actually no, that's not quite the problem I see.

autofs handles large mount tables fairly well (necessarily) and
in time I plan to remove the need to read the proc tables at all
(that's proven very difficult but I'll get back to that).

This has to be done to resolve the age old problem of autofs not
being able to handle large direct mount maps. But, because of
the large number of mounts associated with large direct mount
maps, other system processes are badly affected too.

So the problem I want to see fixed is the effect of very large
mount tables on other user space applications, particularly the
effect when a large number of mounts or umounts are performed.

Clearly large mount tables not only result from autofs and the
problems caused by them are slightly different to the mount and
umount problem I describe. But they are a problem nevertheless
in the sense that frequent notifications that lead to reading
a large proc mount table has significant overhead that can't be
avoided because the table may have changed since the last time
it was read.

It's easy to cause several system processes to peg a fair number
of CPU's when a large number of mounts/umounts are being performed,
namely systemd, udisks2 and a some others. Also I've seen couple
of application processes badly affected purely by the presence of

can be achieved using sysfs I don't know. Creating and maintaining

Yes, now you have to generate (in kernel) and parse (in
userspace) all mount table to get information about just 
one mount table entry. This is typical for umount or systemd.

For umount-like use-cases we need mountpoint/ to mount entry
conversion; I guess something like open(mountpoint/) + fsinfo() 
should be good enough.

For systemd we need the same, but triggered by notification. The ideal
solution is to get mount entry ID or FD from notification and later use this
ID or FD to ask for details about the mount entry (probably again fsinfo()).
The notification has to be usable with in epoll() set.

This solves 99% of our performance issues I guess.

It will be still necessary to get complete mount table sometimes, but 
not in performance sensitive scenarios.

I'm not sure about sysfs/, you need somehow resolve namespaces, order
of the mount entries (which one is the last one), etc. IMHO translate
mountpoint path to sysfs/ path will be complicated.

If mount/umount is triggered by systemd than it need verification
about success and final version of the mount options. It also reads
information from libmount to get userspace mount options (.e.g.
_netdev -- libmount uses mount source, target and fsroot to join
kernel and userpace stuff).

And don't forget that mount units are part of systemd dependencies, so
umount/mount is important event for systemd and it need details about
the changes (what, where, ... etc.)

Yes, now you have to generate (in kernel) and parse (in
userspace) all mount table to get information about just 
one mount table entry. This is typical for umount or systemd.

For umount-like use-cases we need mountpoint/ to mount entry
conversion; I guess something like open(mountpoint/) + fsinfo() 
should be good enough.

For systemd we need the same, but triggered by notification. The
ideal
solution is to get mount entry ID or FD from notification and later
use this
ID or FD to ask for details about the mount entry (probably again
fsinfo()).
The notification has to be usable with in epoll() set.

This solves 99% of our performance issues I guess.

So that means mount table info. needs to be maintained, whether

It will be still necessary to get complete mount table sometimes,

not in performance sensitive scenarios.
That was my understanding too.

Mount table enumeration is possible with fsinfo() but you still
have to handle each and every mount so improvement there is not
going to be as much as cases where the proc mount table needs to
be scanned independently for an individual mount. It will be
somewhat more straight forward without the need to dissect text
records though.
I'm not sure about sysfs/, you need somehow resolve namespaces, order
of the mount entries (which one is the last one), etc. IMHO translate
mountpoint path to sysfs/ path will be complicated.
I wonder about that too, after all sysfs contains a tree of nodes
from which the view is created unlike proc which translates kernel
information directly based on what the process should see.

We'll need to wait a bit and see what Miklos has in mind for mount
table enumeration and nothing has been said about name spaces yet.

While fsinfo() is not similar to proc it does handle name spaces
in a sensible way via. file handles, a bit similar to the proc fs,

Adding Greg for sysfs knowledge.

As far as I understand the sysfs model is, basically:

  - list of devices sorted by class and address
  - with each class having a given set of attributes

Superblocks and mounts could get enumerated by a unique identifier.
mnt_id seems to be good for mounts, s_dev may or may not be good for
superblock, but  s_id (as introduced in this patchset) could be used
instead.

As for namespaces, that's "just" an access control issue, AFAICS.
For example a task with a non-initial mount namespace should not have
access to attributes of mounts outside of its namespace.  Checking
access to superblock attributes would be similar: scan the list of
mounts and only allow access if at least one mount would get access.
While fsinfo() is not similar to proc it does handle name spaces

I agree that the access control is much more straightforward with
fsinfo(2) and this may be the single biggest reason to introduce a new
syscall.

Let's see what others thing.

How so?   struct mount and struct superblock would hold a ref on
struct device, not the other way round.

In any case, I'm not insistent on the use of sysfs device classes for
this; struct device (488B) does seem too heavy for struct mount
(328B).

What I'm pretty sure about is that a read(2) based interface would be

That's an easy thing to say but not an easy thing to check:  it can be
made so for label based namespaces like the network, but the mount
namespace is shared/cloned tree based.  Assessing whether a given
superblock is within your current namespace root can become a large
search exercise.  You can see how much of one in fs/proc_namespaces.c
which controls how /proc/self/mounts appears in your current namespace.
For example a task with a non-initial mount namespace should not have
access to attributes of mounts outside of its namespace.  Checking
access to superblock attributes would be similar: scan the list of
mounts and only allow access if at least one mount would get access.
That scan can be expensive as I explained above.  That's really why I
think this is a bad idea.  Sysfs itself is nicely currently restricted
to system information that most containers don't need to know, so a lot
of the sysfs issues with containers can be solved by not mounting it. 
If you suddenly make it required for filesystem information and
notifications, that security measure gets blown out of the water.

Containers are file based entities, so file descriptors are their most

container people like file descriptors (all the Xat system calls that
have been introduced) is that if we do actually need to break the

orchestration system to pass in a fd the interior of the container
wouldn't have access to.

Yeah, agreed about the simplicity of fd based access.   Then again a
filesystem access would allow immediate access to all scripts,
languages, etc.  That, I think is a huge bonus compared to the
ioctl-like mess that the current proposal is, which would require
library, utility, language binding updates on all changes.  Ugh.

One way to resolve that is to have the mount information
magic-symlinked from /proc/PID/fdmount/FD directly to the mountinfo
dir, which would then have a link into the sbinfo dir.  With other
access denied to all except sysadmin.

Would that work?

At the least the question of "do we need a highly efficient way

extended to include mount table enumeration as well as getting

But this is just me thinking about mount table handling and the

Right.

So the problem is that currently autofs needs to rescan the proc

Actually no, that's not quite the problem I see.

autofs handles large mount tables fairly well (necessarily) and
in time I plan to remove the need to read the proc tables at all
(that's proven very difficult but I'll get back to that).

This has to be done to resolve the age old problem of autofs not
being able to handle large direct mount maps. But, because of
the large number of mounts associated with large direct mount
maps, other system processes are badly affected too.

So the problem I want to see fixed is the effect of very large
mount tables on other user space applications, particularly the
effect when a large number of mounts or umounts are performed.

Clearly large mount tables not only result from autofs and the
problems caused by them are slightly different to the mount and
umount problem I describe. But they are a problem nevertheless
in the sense that frequent notifications that lead to reading
a large proc mount table has significant overhead that can't be
avoided because the table may have changed since the last time
it was read.

It's easy to cause several system processes to peg a fair number
of CPU's when a large number of mounts/umounts are being performed,
namely systemd, udisks2 and a some others. Also I've seen couple
of application processes badly affected purely by the presence of
a large number of mounts in the proc tables, that's not quite so
bad though.

For the notification we have uevents in sysfs, which also

The parameters supplied by the notification mechanism are
important.

The place this is needed will be libmount since it catches a broad
number of user space applications, including those I mentioned
above
(well at least systemd, I think also udisks2, very probably
others).

So that means mount table info. needs to be maintained, whether
that
can be achieved using sysfs I don't know. Creating and maintaining
the sysfs tree would be a big challenge I think.

But before trying to work out how to use a notification mechanism
just having a way to get the info provided by the proc tables using
a path alone should give initial immediate improvement in libmount.
Adding Karel, Lennart, Zbigniew and util-linux@vger...

At a quick glance at libmount and systemd code, it appears that just
switching out the implementation in libmount will not be enough:
systemd is calling functions like mnt_table_parse_*() when it
receives
a notification that the mount table changed.
Maybe I wasn't clear, my bad, sorry about that.

There's no question that change notification handling is needed too.

I'm claiming that an initial change to use something that can get
the mount information without using the proc tables alone will give
an "initial immediate improvement".

The work needed to implement mount table change notification
handling will take much more time and exactly what changes that
will bring is not clear yet and I do plan to work on that too,

Once it's table driven, certainly a sysfs directory becomes
possible. The problem with ST_DEV is filesystems like btrfs and
xfs that may have multiple devices.
For XFS there's always  a single sb->s_dev though, that's what
st_dev will be set to on all files.

Btrfs subvolume is sort of a lightweight superblock, so basically
all such st_dev's are aliases of the same master superblock.  So
lookup of all subvolume st_dev's could result in referencing the
same underlying struct super_block (just like /proc/$PID will
reference the same underlying task group regardless of which of the
task group member's PID is used).

Having this info in sysfs would spare us a number of issues that a
set of new syscalls would bring.  The question is, would that be
enough, or is there a reason that sysfs can't be used to present
the various filesystem related information that fsinfo is supposed
to present?

We need a unique id for superblocks anyway. I had wondered about
using s_dev some time back, but for the reasons mentioned earlier in
this thread I think it might just land up being confusing and
difficult to manage. While fake s_devs are created for sbs that don't
have a device, I can't help thinking that something closer to
ifindex, but for superblocks, is needed here. That would avoid the
issue of which device number to use.

In fact we need that anyway for the notifications, since without
that  there is a race that can lead to missing remounts of the same
device, in  case a umount/mount pair is missed due to an overrun, and
then fsinfo returns the same device as before, with potentially the
same mount options too. So I think a unique id for a superblock is a
generically useful feature, which would also allow for sensible sysfs
directory naming, if required,
But would this be informative and useful for the user?  I'm sure we can
find a persistent id for a persistent superblock, but what about tmpfs
... that's going to have to change with every reboot.  It's going to be
remarkably inconvenient if I want to get fsinfo on /run to have to keep
finding what the id is.

The other thing a file descriptor does that sysfs doesn't is that it
solves the information leak: if I'm in a mount namespace that has no
access to certain mounts, I can't fspick them and thus I can't see the
information.  By default, with sysfs I can.
Difficult to figure out which part of the thread to reply too. :)

sysfs strikes me as fundamentally misguided for this task.

Init systems or any large-scale daemon will hate parsing things, there's
that and parts of the reason why mountinfo sucks is because of parsing a
possibly a potentially enormous file. Exposing information in sysfs will
require parsing again one way or the other. I've been discussing these
bottlenecks with Lennart quite a bit and reliable and performant mount
notifications without needing to parse stuff is very high on the issue
list. But even if that isn't an issue for some reason the namespace
aspect is definitely something I'd consider a no-go.
James has been poking at this a little already and I agree. More
specifically, sysfs and proc already are a security nightmare for
namespace-aware workloads and require special care. Not leaking
information in any way is a difficult task. I mean, over the last two
years I sent quite a lot of patches to the networking-namespace aware
part of sysfs alone either fixing information leaks, or making other
parts namespace aware that weren't and were causing issues (There's
another large-ish series sitting in Dave's tree right now.). And tbh,
network namespacing in sysfs is imho trivial compared to what we would
need to do to handle mount namespacing and especially mount propagation.
fsinfo() is way cleaner and ultimately simpler approach. We very much
want it file-descriptor based. The mount api opens up the road to secure
and _delegatable_ querying of filesystem information.

sysfs also has some other disadvantages for this:

 (1) There's a potential chicken-and-egg problem in that you have to create a
     bunch of files and dirs in sysfs for every created mount and superblock
     (possibly excluding special ones like the socket mount) - but this
     includes sysfs itself.  This might work - provided you create sysfs
     first.

 (2) sysfs is memory intensive.  The directory structure has to be backed by
     dentries and inodes that linger as long as the referenced object does
     (procfs is more efficient in this regard for files that aren't being
     accessed).

 (3) It gives people extra, indirect ways to pin mount objects and
     superblocks.

For the moment, fsinfo() gives you three ways of referring to a filesystem
object:

 (a) Directly by path.

 (b) By path associated with an fd.

 (c) By mount ID (perm checked by working back up the tree).

but will need to add:

 (d) By fscontext fd (which is hard to find in sysfs).  Indeed, the superblock
     may not even exist yet.

sysfs also has some other disadvantages for this:

 (1) There's a potential chicken-and-egg problem in that you have to create a
     bunch of files and dirs in sysfs for every created mount and superblock
     (possibly excluding special ones like the socket mount) - but this
     includes sysfs itself.  This might work - provided you create sysfs
     first.
Sysfs architecture looks something like this (I hope Greg will correct
me if I'm wrong):

device driver -> kobj tree <- sysfs tree

The kobj tree is created by the device driver, and the dentry tree is
created on demand from the kobj tree.   Lifetime of kobjs is bound to
both the sysfs objects and the device but not the other way round.
I.e. device can go away while the sysfs object is still being
referenced, and sysfs can be freely mounted and unmounted
independently of device initialization.

So there's no ordering requirement between sysfs mounts and other
mounts.   I might be wrong on the details, since mounts are created
very early in the boot process...
 (2) sysfs is memory intensive.  The directory structure has to be backed by
     dentries and inodes that linger as long as the referenced object does
     (procfs is more efficient in this regard for files that aren't being
     accessed)
See above: I don't think dentries and inodes are pinned, only kobjs
and their associated cruft.  Which may be too heavy, depending on the
details of the kobj tree.
 (3) It gives people extra, indirect ways to pin mount objects and
     superblocks.
See above.
For the moment, fsinfo() gives you three ways of referring to a filesystem
object:

 (a) Directly by path.
A path is always representable by an O_PATH descriptor.
 (b) By path associated with an fd.
See my proposal about linking from /proc/$PID/fdmount/$FD ->
/sys/devices/virtual/mounts/$MOUNT_ID.
 (c) By mount ID (perm checked by working back up the tree).
Check that perm on lookup of /sys/devices/virtual/mounts/$MOUNT_ID.
The proc symlink would bypass the lookup check by directly jumping to
the mountinfo dir.
but will need to add:

 (d) By fscontext fd (which is hard to find in sysfs).  Indeed, the superblock
     may not even exist yet.
Proc symlink would work for that too.

If sysfs is too heavy, this could be proc or a completely new
filesystem.  The implementation is much less relevant at this stage of
the discussion than the interface.

Thanks,
Miklos
